Nearly all concepts of nanocarriers as drug delivery devices rely on intracellular uptake. Instead, we demonstrate an alternative concept for rapid and specific delivery of cargo by nanoparticles to TIP47+/ADRP+ lipid droplets. The model can serve as a novel strategy for the non-invasive delivery of drugs by releasing hydrophobic cargo, in our case a model dye, through a kiss-and-run mechanism between nanoparticles and the cell membrane.
